We spent the day with Taylan. He was amazing. He made the trip easy and brought to life the Turkish culture. He made us laugh and taught us new things all at the same time. We would highly recommend.
Sergio did am amazing job. We enjoyed every minute. His English was perfect and very advanced. His biblical knowledge made the experience fascinating. It was well worth our time.
What an excellent private tour we had with Taylan. He was so full of information about the sites we saw. Always was asking if we had any questions. I highly recommend him and this tour!!!!
The tour we joined was perfect. Everything was very well organized during the day. Lunch was delicious. And the carpet demonstration and gallery was stunning. Tour guide güzide was kind, patience, well english. Recommended.
Our guide Taylan was great. He was fun and offered lots of information throughout the day. He was willing to change the plan to suit our wishes and do whatever possible to ensure we had a great day. He added things we wanted to do and eliminated things we decided we didn't want to do. There was nothing more we could have asked for. Very good host to his country and we learned a lot about turkey.
Taylan was very knowledgeable about his country and the history . He was also considerate of our wants and needs. I would recommend him and I we him again. We did 2 tours with him Ephesus and Hieropoles.
Taylan has a wealth of knowledge and experience and an engaging manner. He was generous with his time and we enjoyed every minute. He really understood what we wanted to see and the pace and checked in regularly. There were many special touches that let us see that he really cared about our experience. He was a great representative of Turkish hospitality. We could not have imagined a better guide. We quickly booked a second day and it was just as good.
The tour was everything I hoped for and more. We started with House of Mary to beat the crowds, and it worked wonderfully. Ephesus was amazing. We learned so much and got to see so many cool things (a lot of cats too). Lunch was delicious; so delicious I actually purchased some of the pomegranate dressing to bring home. Carpet making demonstration was enlightening. We also stopped at a family owned ceramic company and saw some very cool pieces (I bought a couple). We had a little time to stop at a local confectionary and get some local treats! Tour ended with a quick stop to the Temple of Artemis (small but cool). I'm amazed at how much we saw and did while still be comfortable and energized the whole time.
Taylan made our trip to Turkey! He was on time, personable, and very detailed. He was able to suggest local spots that we never would have seen otherwise and made us feel very welcome. I would highly suggest booking this tour if you’re looking for an easy, stress free way to see Euphesus. 10/10 would suggest.
We enjoyed a fascinating visit to Ephesus with an excellent guide, Ozgur, whose many stories made ruins from the cultures that built Ephesus come alive. A private guide for your trip is absolutely worth it. Private professional guides in Turkey are highly trained, very knowledgeable and experts at presenting complex history in a lively, entertaining way. We learned so much about the civilizations that came before us, the ways Greek culture in particular is alive with us today and the role Turkey played as Christianity emerged. Turkey has been at the crossroads of civilizations for not hundreds but thousands of years and you can see this in the ruins of Ephesus, the Temple of Artemis and the Basilica of St. John.
The trip was so much fun and very cool to visit Ephesus and the House of Mary. Our guide was the best! He was super nice and informative and had lots of tips on more things to do and see in the area. He definitely knew what he was talking about and suited the tour to what we were most interested in. Definitely would recommend!
